well there is three kinds of paragon.. there is original wintergreen ground effects. so called stinky..black can

there is paragon FX-2 which is non wintergreeen smelling but just as stinky if you ask me,(white can with pinkish purple writing)

then there is paragon traction action which has a chemical smell, and is called odorless..

Ive been using niftec this year and i love it..

Does the fx-2 compare to ground affects?

So I guess you need to modify your poll to reflect the Paragon Ground Effects option. Otherwise you'll have a bunch of "other" votes.

SO IT WORKS BETTER THAN TRACTION ACTION?

I use Paragon Ground Effects because I can find it every where. It works and seems to work fast. I do hate having to wipe it off, though. I'm used to the smell, but my wife hates it.

I use Stick-ET for foams and for capped tires. Also use the cleaner. Works great.

yes i did not like the traction action..Like i said before i like the niftec . I run stock so the high grip stuff tends to stick to much.. when i use niftech it seems to free up the car more..

Tq-mod seems to work well at both our local tracks , good bite without making car overly tight, loop carpet tracks.
Pleasant smell , no track around here will aloww any wintergreen smell.

I believe chemicals in Niftech + T.Q. to be much worse for humans than wintergreen. Mike Lufaso (chemist and top racer) wrote an article on it.
